Netflix and The Removal of English Audio in Sweden

It is getting EXCEEDINGLY annoying.

Netflix are slowly starting to remove English audio and English subtitles from shows...even if they were recorded in English in the first place.

Pokemon has had English audio and subs removed from about 50% of the episodes now. Yes. I know Pokemon is not originally recorded in English...but no reason to remove English subs.

Paddington (a British movie!) has no English audio track or subtitles, which makes it unwatchable for me.

Walking Dead (until it was removed) had no English subtitles. This was especially bad as it seems the syndicated version has some weird volume mixing issues with the music and sound effects being louder than the speech, which means you basically need to watch it with subtitles or you hear shit.

Other random movies are popping up with no English audio or subtitles.

It is incredibly annoying, particularly when Netflix has been averaging 13 new shows or movies every 10 days. Not only are they trimming back content, but they are trimming back content which is actually watchable.

Who in Sweden wants to watch live action movies which have been dubbed?

I have heard that this is happening in Germany too.
